Hi Sam,

We are planning to indroduce some support of queries and filtering in MD-SAL And hopefully also NETCONF and RESTCONF (this is tracked by https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2300) I added to bug report your use-case so we would consider it during design of filtering and queries. I plan to post soon draft release plans for yangtools, md-sal, netconf (and restconf included) so we can move conversation forward. Tony -----Original Message-----

Is that a feature that can be added for Be? The idea is to be able to search for something using a field in the model that is not a key. For instance, the ovsdb.yang imports the network-topology and adds a Node to the datastore. The model augments the node to include ip-addresses. We would like the ability to issue a restconf query to return the node with that ip-address. Today to do this we would implement an RPC to terminate in our backend code. Then retrieve all the Nodes in the datastore, loop over them and look for the specific matching data. We figure this is a common block of code that might be able to be implemented in the mdsal itself. Thanks, Sam |
